About Strava
Strava is a social fitness network and mobile app where cyclists and runners track, share, and compete on their athletic activities. It connects millions of fitness enthusiasts globally and provides performance analytics, segment leaderboards, and community features.
Saysimple customers in fitness coaching, gym management, and sports retail can use this integration to sync Strava athlete data and send personalized WhatsApp messages—such as training reminders, achievement notifications, or promotional offers—directly to members. This creates a direct engagement channel that complements Strava's social experience and drives retention through timely, relevant messaging.
